Tourist destination info Sumartin - island Brac

Sumartin is a small town on the easternmost cape on Brač island. It was founded in 1645 by Dalmatian pilgrims who were trying to escape the Turks and it is interesting that, to this day, residents of Sumartin speak with a different dialect than the rest of the island towns. The main economic branches are fishing, maritime activities, shipbuilding, olive growing and tourism. The town is marked by the Franciscan monastery and church of St. Martin which is a sight to be seen by all history lovers. Because of its port, Sumartin represents the gate to Brač. Beautiful beaches and the crystal clear sea are irresistible to all visitors, while beautiful nature and rich culinary offer are a guarantee of an unforgettable vacation. In the near vicinity of Sumartin you can find several peaceful hidden bays (Rasotica, Zukovik, Radovanja, Studena, Zvirje and Spilice) with sand and pebble beaches where everyone can find a quiet corner for themselves. The town is perfect for a peaceful vacation away from city crowds. As in all Dalmatian towns, Sumartin hosts several summer events, the most popular of which is the Lady of the Angels festivity held on August 2nd. Those who enjoy dalmatian cooking and island specialties can visit restaurants “Bernardo” and “Dalmatino”. While in Sumartin, do not miss the opportunity to visit Bol on the island and Split and Omiš on the mainland.
